I deleted every single file related with exim, I removed procmail and mailx and reinstalled them then reinstall qmail.
The biggest problem was with mailx, then I did the same with procmail and everything went ok.
With that experience I arrive to the conclusion that
- Removing exim is difficult.
- A lot of packages which are using mail i.e apache are too strongly attached to exim, because we should be able to set up a webserver without having a mta on the machine.
- Having exim strongly linked to other packages causes more problems than it resolves.
